Music Parents Raise Money for Band Uniforms Music Parents, with the help of other organizations, spent $30,000 on new band uniforms. These could be marching or concert uniforms, depending on the overlay the band chose to wear. The main money making project was selling magazines. It was very successful with a total profit of $4000 which was more money than they had made in previous years. This money was added to the fund for the uniforms. The group suggested something new for the pep band-new shirts. These made a really big with the band members and also provided a sense of pride and unity among the entire group. Meeting every other Tuesday, members decided who would sponsor trips taken by the choir and band, who would receive the various scholarships, and tried to get more parents involved. As Mrs. Oralene Hofmann, the choir director, had to say, I think Music Parents is a real fine support group. Mr Dick Rischling, band director, inspects the quality of and also shows the pants of the new uniform These pants are royal blue with a darker blue satin stripe down each leg. Mrs Hofmann and Miss Beth Young, high school and middle school choir directors, respectively, and other members discuss the up-coming musical events. 1984-85 Music Parents officers Secretary Peggy Chouanard, President Delma Turgeon, and Treasurer Saundra Petersen proudly display the new band uniform.
